TRAINING PROGRAM FOR
PRODUCTION PERSONNEL
ON
CURRENT GOOD MANUFACTURING
PRACTICES (CGMP)
BASED ON ICH GUIDELINES
-
PRINCIPLES
Quality is the responsibility of all persons involved in the manufacture
All the quality related activities should be defined and documented
All the quality related activities should be recorded at the time they are performed
Any deviation from the established procedures should be documented and explained
No material should be used before the evaluation and approval by QA/QC
-
RESPONSIBILITIES OF
PRODUCTION ACTIVITIES
Producing APIs, intermediates according to pre-approved instructions
Reviewing all production batch records and ensuring that these are completed and signed
Making sure that all production deviations are reported and evaluated and that critical deviations are investigated and the conclusions are recorded
Making sure that the necessary calibrations are performed and records kept
-
PERSONAL HYGIENE
Personnel should practice good sanitation and health habits
Personnel should wear clean clothing suitable for the manufacturing activities, and this clothing should be changed when necessary
Additional protective apparels, such as head, face, hand should be worn when necessary to protect intermediate and API from contamination
Smoking, eating, drinking, chewing, and the storage of food should be restricted to certain designated areas separate from the manufacturing areas
Personnel suffering from infectious disease or open lesion on the exposed surface of the body should not engage in manufacturing activity
-
BUILDINGS / FACILITIES
There should be defined areas for the following activities
Receipt
Identification
Status Identification of the materials
Storage of materials
Packing and labeling operation
The washing and toilet facilities should be separate and maintained clean
-
UTILITIES
Permanently installed pipe work should be appropriately identified to avoid risk of contamination.
Drains should be kept clean, free from sludge or any other waste
Appropriate measures should be established and implemented to prevent cross contamination from personnel, materials etc., moving from one dedicated area to the other
Adequate lighting should be provided in all areas to facilitate cleaning maintenance and proper operation
Sewage, refuse and other waste (e.g. solids, liquids) in and from the buildings and immediate surrounding areas should be disposed of in a safe manner. Containers and/or pipes for waste material should be clearly identified
-
PROCESS EQUIPMENT AND
CLEANING
Equipment should be constructed so as that surfaces that contact raw materials, intermediates, or APIs do not alter the quality of construction
Written procedures should be established for cleaning of equipment and its subsequent use in the manufacture of intermediates and APIs. Cleaning procedures should contain sufficient details to enable operators to clean each type of equipment in a reproducible and effective manner
Non dedicated equipment should be cleaned between production of different, materials to prevent cross contamination
Acceptance criteria for residues and the choice of cleaning procedures and cleaning agents should be defined and justified
Equipment should be identified as to its contents and its cleanliness status by appropriate means
-
CALIBRATION
Control, weighing, measuring, monitoring and test equipment that is critical for assuring the quality of intermediates or APIs should be calibrated according to written procedures and established schedule
Records of these calibrations should be maintained
Current calibration status of critical equipment should be known and verifiable
Instruments that do not meet calibration criteria should not be used
-
DOCUMENTATION AND RECORDS
All production and control records should be retained for at least one year of the expiry of the batch
When entries need to be made in records these should be made indelibly in spaces provided for, directly after performing the activity (in the order performed) and identify the person making the entry. Corrections to entries should be dated and sign and leave the original entry still readable
Records of major equipment use, cleaning and sanitisation And maintenance should show the date, time (if appropriate), product, and the batch number and the person performed the cleaning and maintenance
-
DOCUMENTATION AND RECORDS
All the records or copies of such records, should be readily available during the retention period at the establishment where the activities described in such records occurred.
If the equipment is dedicated to manufacturing one intermediate or API, then individual equipment records are not necessary if the batches of the intermediate or API follow in a traceable sequence. In cases where dedicated equipment is employed, the records of cleaning, maintenance and use may become a part of the batch record or may be maintained separately.
-
MASTER PRODUCTION
INSTRUCTIONS
To ensure uniformity from batch to batch, master production instructions for each intermediate and API should be prepared, dated, and signed by one person and independently checked by a person in the quality units
Master production instructions should include : The name of the intermediate A complete list of raw materials and intermediates An accurate statement of the quantity of each raw material or
intermediate to be used including the unit of measure. Where quantity is not fixed ,the calculation for each batch size
should be included Detailed production instructions including sequence to be
followed, ranges of process parameters, sampling instructions with acceptance criteria, time limits for completion of individual processing steps and/or the total process, expected yield ranges at appropriate phases of processing or time
-
MASTER PRODUCTION
INSTRUCTIONS
Special notations and precautionary measures to be followed
The instructions for storage of the intermediate and API to assure their suitability for use, including the labelling and packing materials and special storage conditions
-
BATCH MANUFACTURING
RECORDS
Batch Manufacturing Records should be prepared for each intermediate and API and should include complete Information relating to the production and control of each batch.
These records should be numbered with a unique batch or identification number.
Intermediates and APIs failing to meet established specification should be identified and quarantined.
Documentation of completion of each step in the batch manufacturing records should include
-
BATCH MANUFACTURING
RECORDS
Documentation of completion of each step in the batch manufacturing records should include : Date and time Identity of major equipment Specific identification of each batch, including weights, measures
batch numbers of Raw Materials, or Intermediates or any reprocessed materials used during the manufacturing
Actual results recorded for critical process parameters Any sampling performed Signatures of the persons performing and directly supervising or
checking each critical step in the operation In process and laboratory test results Actual Yield at appropriate phases or times Description of packing and label for intermediate or API Any deviations noted, its evaluation investigation conducted Results of release testing
-
STORAGE
Materials should be handled and stored in a manner to prevent degradation, contamination and cross contamination
Materials stored in fiber drums, bags, or boxes should be stored off the floor and when necessary suitably spaced to permit cleaning and inspection
Materials should be stored under conditions and for a period, which have no adverse affect on their quality, and should normally be rotated so that the oldest stock is used first
Rejected materials should be identified and controlled under quarantine system designated to prevent their unauthorised use in manufacturing
-
PRODUCTION AND IN PROCESS
CONTROLS
Raw materials for intermediates and API manufacturing should be weighed or measured. Weighing and measuring devices should be of suitable accuracy for the intended use.
If a material is subdivided for later use in production, the container receiving the material should be suitable and should be identified clearly
Critical weighing, measuring, or subdividing should be supervised prior to use, production personnel should verify that the materials are those specified in the batch record for the intended use.
Other critical activities should be supervised and signed by Supervisor.
-
TIME LIMITS
If time limits are specified in BMR for carrying out any reaction, these time limits should to be met. Deviations should be documented and evaluated. Time limits may be inappropriate when processing to a specification like pH because completion of reactions or processing steps are determined by in process sampling and testing
Intermediates held for further processing should be stored under appropriate conditions to assure their suitability for use.
In process controls (and process monitoring) including the control points and methods should be stated in BMR
In process controls may be performed by production personnel and the process adjusted without prior QC approval, provided adjustments are made with in the pre-established limits.
-
TIME LIMITS
Out-Of-Specification batches should not be blended with other batches for the purpose of meeting the specifications. Each batch incorporated into the blend should have been individually tested and found to meet appropriate specifications prior to blending.
Blending processes should be adequately controlled and documented and the blended batch should be tested for conformance to specifications.
The batch record of the blending process should allow traceability back to the individual batches that make up the blend
-
CONTAMINATION CONTROL
Production operations should be conducted in a manner that will prevent contamination of intermediates or APIs by other materials.
Special attention should be taken when APIs are handled after purification to avoid contamination.
-
REJECTION AND RE USE OF
MATERIAL
Intermediates and APIs failing to meet specifications should be identified as such and quarantined. These intermediates and/or APIs can be reprocessed. The final disposition should be recorded.
Recovery (e.g. Mother liquor) of reactants intermediates or the APIs is acceptable ,provided that approved procedures exist for the recovery and that the recovered material meets specifications.
Fresh and recovered mother liquors may be combined if adequate testing has shown their suitability for all manufacturing process in which they may be used.
